[FIXED] Keyboard localisation issues.

Hi, all.
I've recently installed Arch for the first time. I'm using openbox as my window manager.
The output of localectl is:
System Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
VC Keymap: uk
X11 Layout: uk
However my keyboard is using a US layout. The "loadkeys uk" does not change anything.
I have also followed this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ke … on_in_Xorg
No luck.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your time.

I got confused because during the arch installation you can use "loadkeys uk" to get the proper keymap.
Thank you very much for your time. Fixed now.

  • Tap to click not working properly in Mountain Lion. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

    The tap to click does not work with mountain lion as it did before the mountain lion install. I purchased a brand new imac in August of 2011 and got a wireless keyboard and selected the wireless trackpad instead of a mouse.  The trackpad worked wonderful pre upgrade with tap to click. Now after the install of the newest beast, I have to actually press the trackpad rather than a slight tap. I have carpel tunnel and this is causing great stress upon my hand. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

    Perhaps, I was not clear enough.
    I have an imac purchased in Aug. 2011 which came with Lion 10.6 (two uprades before mountain lion)
    Recently, I just purchased a macbook pro retina with Mountain Lion
    On my imac, my settings allowed me to "tap to click" everything EXCEPT the initial log in at the star up of my imac, again running Lion 10.6
    On my macbook pro retina which has Mountain Lion, I set up the "tap to click" option, but notice that a "hard" click was neccessary when trying to click things. I thought this was a macbook thing (my first one) so I went and upgraded my imac to Mountain LIon, BIG MISTAKE! Now both my imac AND my macbook only have limited "tap to click" options. Before mountain lion I could "tap" to highlight and select text, tap and drag, and many other thiings that Mountain Lion has disabled.
    I am truly surprised that no one has noticed this MAJOR issue.
    Is there a way to uninstall this update, similar to how on a PC you can go back to a restore point.
    On another note even the way PREVIEW has changed is less user friendly, there used to be icons on the bottom right corner of the screen, now I have to double tap and select the option I would like to switch between contacts and thumbnails. This is really annoying and is causing me time when reviewing files.
    Just in case anyone was wondering, I did go to system preferences -> trackpad -> select tap to click
    In fact almost all of the trackpad functions have been selected.

  • Upgrade Vista to Windows 7 Keyboard Filter Issue

    I really need some help with this...
    I upgraded vista to Windows 7 full retail version.
    Compatability check said to update keyboard filter. I couldnt find much info about this and assumed it wouldnt affect it too much except extra functions I probly never use.
    Unfortunately, my keyboard doesnt function properly at all.
    Im using HP G30-260US laptop.
    I have now disconnected the keyboard ribbon and plugged in a usb keyboard, quite a pain to use this one, but at least its working. I would really like to know of a fix for this issue to get my real keyboard working and windows 7 is already running on this computer, from upgrading, not a clean install. I've tried installing a different quick launch buttons driver and uninstalled it completely after windows 7 but no success.
    Please help me hehe
    Thanks a miillion

    3. Apache Axis
    4. <fmt> tag library (Apache)

    Hi,
    Thanks for viewing and resposding to my problem.
    Yes I tried with that setting also, but no change in the result. I also tried with the below given scenario's but not worked.
    1. Tried with Filter by setting the content type.
    2. Tried by placing the content type in header.jsp
    What I noticed is when I place the below snippet in any of the jsp then it'showing the Japanesse charecters in the browser.
    <fmt:setBundle basename="com.axeda.drm.webapp.device.JspResources" var="whichLocaleUsed" scope="session"/>
    <%
    LocalizationContext localizationContext = (LocalizationContext) session.getAttribute("whichLocaleUsed");
    Locale mLocale = localizationContext.getLocale();
    MessageResources messages = MessageResources.getMessageResources("com.resources.JspResources");
    String val = new String(messages.getMessage(mLocale,"jsp.device.model.list_models.page-title"));
    out.println("page_title (1) : "+new String(val.getBytes(),"UTF-8"));
    %>
    but when I use the below code then it's not showing the japanesse charecters in the browser.
    <fmt:bundle basename="com.resources.JspResources"
    prefix="jsp.device.model.list_models.">
    <fmt:message key="page-title"/>
    Please provide some suggestion.

  • Late 2013 13" MBPr unresponsive (not keyboard/mouse issue)

    Hi all,
    I am running a 2013 13"MBPr with 1TB SSD, 16GB RAM and 2.8i7.
    I have updated the firmware to fix the keyboard/mouse issue.
    My problem is the computer hanging or unresposive when using other programs.
    I thought this was a problem with Chrome which I use for browsing as I had a simialr issue with my 2010 MBP 15".
    But yesterday it hung in Mail.
    Apple Diagnostics was fine.
    I have tried uninstall and reinstall of Chrome. I run a few extensions but have reduced these as much as possible. Only use Adblocker, 1password, Papers and Quidco apps.
    I will try to reinstall mavericks and see how it goes. Hopefully I get some luck.
    Anyone have any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Thanks Clinton,
    Well It came with mavericks and I will reinstall tonight to see if it helps.
    Called apple today and they suggested a reinstall.
    In the mean time I have put a refund order thorugh for this computer and reorded it. So I guess this will rule out hardware issues. The only issue is the same spec computer is only expecting delviery between 9th to 16th December!!!
    So may be without a computer for a while.
    Happy to read that you suggest only perfection as this is what I expect.
    Cheers

  • When are they going to fix the syncing issue with podcast playlists...????

    And is there anywhere I can complain to Apple about it..??????? This is getting REALLY frustrating....

    Which version of iTunes are you using? 9.0.1 fixes several Podcats issues - see this link for a news item:
    http://www.podcastingnews.com/2009/09/24/itunes-9-0-1-fixes-podcast-sync-problem s/
    Note the iTunes version - if you're still using 9.0, move up to 9.0.1

  • I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed.

    I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed. When I went to find the "icon" I can"t find it. When i looked in the download files I saw the downloads, but not the actual itunes "app". Please help thanks!

    How did you uninstall it and what were your IPOD issues - that may help clarify the problem.

  • How Can I Fix The Graphics Issue...?

    After having my computer for a few years, it started getting an artifact around the mouse, and when it did that, everything was frozen, key commands didn't work, and I would have to manually shut it down.
    I went to the Apple store, and they couldn't get it to boot, even with their external drive. The guy at the Apple store took my computer into the back, and a few minutes later, brought it out. He said he had gotten it to boot, without their external drive, but wouldn't tell me how. He said there was a problem with my video card. He said $400 to fix it.
    Not having the money, I left. A friend told me how to safe boot the computer, and now it will turn on, despite the artifacts and graphics problems. Why didn't the guy at the store tell me this? It's obviously the only way he could have booted it. He wanted to charge me $50 to back up my data, when I could do it myself under the safe boot.
    The thing is, when using safe boot, I have no audio or video functionality- the camera doesn't work, the speakers don't work, and the disc drive doesn't work. I've read up on this, and it's an issue for a lot of macs, from about the time I bought mine. They say there was too much glue used somewhere in the computer (2 or 3 little chips with too much glue or something), and over time the glue/ adhesive gets too hot, and spreads to other areas and ruins them (ie. my graphics card). That's my simplified understanding of the issue, anyway.
    Why won't Apple replace it for me? They won't let me trade it in, because it won't boot right, but this is an issue they were aware of at some point. I spent a lot of money on this laptop and it's really nothing more than a digital typewriter now.
    Does anyone know how I can fix the graphics issue? Aside from shelling out the money I don't have for something that's really Apple's fault? It'd be really nice to be able to, I don't know, watch things and listen to things. That was the whole reason I got this thing.
    Thanks for any ideas, feedback, sympathy, empathy or other comments.
    <Edited by Moderator>

    Ok, you are right, maybe I don't know it for a fact . . . but from all the things I read in various forums, there was a batch (or something similar) of macs (the exact kind I have) that did have too much glue on some parts, and it caused all sorts of problems for different people, most of those problems being with the graphics card. Apparently the excess glue overheats and leaks out of where it's supposed to stay, and whatever it has the misfortune of getting on goes to pot.
    I got very brave, thinking my computer was shot- I opened it, and there was, indeed, crusty glue coming out from under some ... things ... three square chip like things ... and it had seeped onto the edges my graphics card. Having seen the inside of other laptops, I know it was not supposed to look like that no matter how old it is.
    This whole issue happened just a few months after my (overpriced, unused) AppleCare expired. Irony?
    I did backup all my data and files (no thanks to the Apple people; and on safe boot the disc drive won't work, so I had to borrow my friend's external hard drive for backing up), and did a clean install with the original discs. It was a huge hassle, and when it was finally done, I booted my computer normally. It worked for about 10 minutes before it got artifacts all over and froze, at which point I had to force shut it down. I've tried the clean reinstall a few times, but the problem (I think) is that the glue inside already did the damage, and my graphics card is shot. So, I've been running it on safe boot for months. No music. No video. No disc drive. OH- and the best part- on safe boot, the airport won't work. I can't use wi-fi, and I can't take my laptop anywhere because I'm tethered to a modem. It's the worst thing ever. All of it. It's horribly depressing.
    I'm just really frustrated and irritated that this happened, and Apple won't do anything. I do realize they don't HAVE to do anything- buyer beware and whatnot- BUT as a reputable company they should at least let me trade in with the discount or whatever. I didn't have to choose Mac, it was the most expensive computer I looked at- but it has so many awesome functions and things . . . that I can't even use . . .
    As a poor college student I don't have the option to get a new computer or have Apple replace any parts in this one, so I just kind of feel like Apple screwed me over. Their fault? Maybe not. Their product? Yes, so they should want to keep me as a future customer. At least I think so.
    I guess this isn't quite a question. But I would love more feedback, ideas, anything. Has anyone else had this problem? Can I replace my own video card? Will Apple do anything at all? I love macs but I might never get another one, since this could happen again.
    And- unrelated- who changed the title of my post, and how, and why?

    If you bought the MBP new 3 weeks ago, it should have come with Mountain Lion already installed. Did you update your MBP to the newly released 10.8.4 update? If not, what OS were you running before the upgrade, and what version of Mountain Lion do you have now?

  • HT1476 iphone 5 usb does not charge in my 2013 Honda Accord.  Is there a fix for this issue?

    iphone 5 usb does not charge in my 2013 Honda Accord.  Is there a fix for this issue?  It will connect via bluetooth but when I go to connect the usb charger it states that it is not compatible or you never get the charging display on your iPhone 5.  It charges just fine when I use the AC charger in the house.  At first I thought it may have been the cord but the same cord works fine in the house too.  This causes problems when you take long trips and don't have any way to charge your phone while on the road.  Are there any upcoming fixes/iupdates either to the software or usb cord that will fix this?

  • How do I fix the compatibility issue between my iPhone 4S with iOS 7 and my Pioneer car stereo? There was no problem with iOS 6, but now I get a message saying "this device is not compatible" and so I can't use Netflix for example. How do I fix it?

    This is a typical response from the manufacturer. Did you try the fix that Lawrence mentioned. When Apple or any other phone manufacturer update phone software, they have the latest Bluetooth installed. It is usually the problem with the radio manufacturer that they devices are using the older Bluetooth protocols. You can try this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581 and see if anything there helps, but generally it requires the radio manufacturer to update their firmware.

    iOS 7.0.3 did not fix the mirroring issue with ATVs and AirServer.  Anyone have an idea what needs to be done?  The only solution we have found is to reboot the iPad.  We don't have the option of restarting the wireless as so many people are on and it would further disrupt classes.

  • Apple support asked me to reset my settings to fix my iMessage issue, now the issue is that I can't get past the sync to iTunes message on my phone.  My phone is stuck in reset and I can't even use it!

    Apple support asked me to reset my settings to fix my iMessage issue and not my iPhone is stuck in reset mode.  It won't sync with my iTunes and it won't allow me to move past that reset screen to even use my phone.

    Anyone out there have this issue, I'd really love some help/guidance.
    Everytime I restart, force quit mail, restart in safe mode, and regular mode, when I reopen the Mail application, it goes right to the Upgrade Mail database screen and goes right back to the same spot it has been since I downloaded Mountain Lion and initislly opened the Mail app. It only goes to the Upgrade option, or can quit and Upgrade later. It is stuck in the middle of the Upgrade of my mail database...this blows!!!

  • Does the Imovie 6.0.3 update fix the stability issues?

    Hi,
    Been using Imovie 6.0.2 a fair bit lately, and have had quite a few crashes. I see from this forum that I'm not the only one.
    I haven't yet been able to update to the latest version (6.0.3) released last week, and would like some user experience opinions about whether the update has fixed the stability issues. Anybody noticed any improvements or otherwise?
    My crashes seem to happen pretty randomly, it could be when you're putting a transition in, or just when you click Play or move the playhead. Any time really. I get the little spinning circle and Imovie is hung. Tried leaving it for ages just in case it was eventually going to return, but it doesn't.
    Has the patch fixed it?
    cheers,
    Ian

    Software Update says I have nothing that needs updated. Since I know this isnt true, I went to Downloads and attempted to install both updates--it stopped and said I had to go back to the previous download. After a couple journeys back to nowhere, I gave up.
